A Changing Texas Labor Market
1. If it’s not a recession, it’s still not fun. Downturn
affects output, employment, tax revenues
2. Economists still very divided on duration, turning
point signals, and level of job growth in recovery
3. Continued transition to services, not products for
value-added and employment opportunities.
4. Productivity through technology implementation
will transform many job sites and skill sets.
Technology is changing products, creating jobs e.g.
Burlington/Nano-Tex, Texas-in-a-Box
A Changing Texas Labor Market
(continued)
5. More jobs in small firms, greater use of leased
and independent contract labor means fewer and
shorter career ladders
6. Higher overall workforce education levels
encourage fewer internal career ladders, fewer
growth options for unskilled when they get a
job e.g. hire outside folks who don’t need training
7. Organizational structure moving from pyramid
to flatter pyramid to hour glass, so fewer ports
of entry for low skill workers
A Changing Texas Labor Market
(continued)
8. Globalization is changing economic theory,
business practices and labor supply options
9. Earnings inequality is increasing based on
education and the “Digital Divide”
10. Changing demography affects everything
from education needs, working with diversity,
consumer tastes, tax structure, retirement
11. All education and workforce development is
part of economic development. Industry
Clusters emphasize the regional collaboration.
